Shi43ya

Out drinking on a Saturday, I was witness to one of the stranger events in Osaka: A series of boats that look like sushi were sent down Dotonbori river.

いつかの土曜日に友達と飲んでいた時になんか変なことが出てきました。なぜかわかりませんけど、道頓堀川に寿司の船が浮いてきました。


I'm not sure what exactly this parade was celebrating, but I'm happy to be there. All that sushi made me hungry, though, so my friends and I decided to find a place to eat. It was pretty late so we decided to try Shi43ya, a late night shio and clam shop, that had recently opened a second shop. On my visit to the first shop I got the standard, so this time I decided to try the shijimi miso ramen.

このパレードがなんで来たかわかりませんけど、なかなか面白かったです。寿司を見たらお腹が空いてきましたけど。夜遅かったので友達とラーメンに行こうとなりました。しじみラーメン専門店「Shi43屋」の2号店が最近できたので、そちらに行ってみました。前回行った時に定番の塩ラーメンにしたので、今回味噌をチャレンジしました。

The Bowl
Even with miso, this was the kind of bowl you can appreciate late at night. After, or during, a night of drinking, I want something with a bit of oil, but pretty simple and not too thick. This bowl had enough miso to keep it flavorful, but was very easy to drink. The only toppings were the shijimi clams, curly noodles, and bok choy. I would have been left unsatisfied if I had come in with a big appetite, but it was perfect for the time.

味噌なのに、夜遅く飲めたラーメンでした。いっぱい飲んだら、何か油が入っているあっさりとしたものが欲しいです。このラーメンに味噌が十分に入っていましたけど、濃いめにならなくて、透き通って飲みやすかったです。トッピングも少なくて、しじみ、ちぢれ麺、チンゲンサイぐらいだけで、すっきりとしました。すごい量が欲しかったら困りましたけど、今回ちょうど良かったです。

Would I Go Again?
I won't go when I'm normally looking for ramen, but after a few drinks I wouldn't be surprised if I end up there again.

ラーメンの気分なら行きませんけど、何杯かを飲んでからまた行っちゃうかな。

Should You Go?
When you're looking for just a bit of salt when you're out in Namba, stop at Shi43ya.

なんばにいてなんかちょびっと塩辛いもの食べたい時にShi43屋に行ってみてください。
